I previously reported on the Philadelphia County Court of
Common Pleas post-Koken decision on venue in the case of Fish v. Erie Insurance Company, No. 003411, Jan. Term, 2013 (C.P.
Phila. Co. 2013 New, J.), in which the court
granted Erie Insurance Company’s Preliminary Objections based upon a forum selection clause and transferred venue of a
UIM case from Philadelphia to FranklinCounty.The original ruling was by Order only.

That case has been appealed and Judge New has issued a Rule
1925 Opinion in support of his previous decision.Anyone wishing to review that decision may
click this LINK. I send thanks to Attorney John Statler of the Lemoyne, PA law
firm of Johnson, Duffie, Stewart &
Widner for forwarding a copy of this
Opinion to my attention.
